As a non-profit art group, Artist Commune was established in July 1997.

Since its inception, from artist workshops at "Cheung Fat Industrial Building in Shek Tong Tsui", to "Oil Street Artist Village, North Point", to "Slaughter House, Cheung Sha Wan", and in spite of frequent moves, Artist Commune has been rooted in "Cattle Depot Artist Village, To Kwa Wan" since 2001. As Artist Commune's of the important projects, "Contemporary Ink Series" is an attempt to merge traditional ink painting and modern materials and concepts together, to expand the boundary for art form of INK. "Projects to Response Social Issues" is using an aesthetic angle, virtual political creation and first-hand involvement in the society.

We have invited many significant international artists to "Artist-In-Residency Prgramme" to exchange their experience and ideas with local artists and audience. "Further Development of Art in Hong Kong" requires new energy. Thus, we have co-organized various art promotion activities in association with tertiary education institutes.
